new to board Paul's story
Hello my name is Paul i was offically dx with crohn's in May 2010 but been have on and off problems since March of 2008. In March of 2008 i was hit with a really bad stomach bug which my stomach and GI Track never fully recovered. i have never been the same since then. i was hospitalized for 5 whole days during that time they never could positivley give me a different dx of anything. i was having a fever of 103, lots of pain in LRQ and lots of vomiting and diarrea for days, major headache. they first taught it was appendicitis but the blood work so no and ct scan said no, then taught it was bad food posioning but test came back no, then they belived it was Cdif that came back negative. after leaving the hosiptial i was still having lots of stomach cramping for months. i had my first EGD/full colonscopy done that year with only minor inflamition in parts of my large intestine then i got better for about a year and half then around Memorial day of this year i started having bloody diarrea and lots of LRQ pains and LLQ cramping with lots of nausea. i had 2 flex sigs within the last year in half, a pillcam sb, and lots of blood and stool samples. my scopes come up clean, the pillcam never left my stomach in over 8 hours. that lead to being dx with gastropersis(SP) which is a slow empting stomach on top of the Crohn's which make treating my Crohn's more challenging since my stomach is slow to empting. i had a break of about 2 weeks recently then bam hit with the bloody poops again and cramping and nasuea. seen gi doc yesterday changed me for encrotc er to predisone on top of all my other meds
